From the Canadian movie "I Am A Hotel" (1983).The whole video is only 24 min. long but it contains some of the best LC's songs.Written by Leonard Cohen and Mark Shekter, produced by Allan Nichols for Blue Memorial Video Ltd. Filmed at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto.The video won the Golden Rose international television award in Montreux, Switzerland.
This song is about a one night stand he had with Janis Joplin when they were bothe were totally shit-faced.............he told the story before singing it live sometime around the mid 90's.....the grin on his face told you he was telling it from memory..........cool man. Shame he got ripped off by his manager wife.......

Man,this guys work stands like a monolith in popular music. I see it as no mean tribute that Bono and U2 backed him on "Tower of Song" for the documentary "I'm Your Man".

Definitely Songs of Leonard Cohen or Songs of love and hate. In fact, any of his first four albums, after that he sort of turned his back on the acoustic guitar and went for more of a big band sound. And if its this song you're after, its on New skin for old ceremony, which is his fourth. Basically, you can't go far wrong cos the man's a stone cold genius.
